Emma Watson: "I’m My Own Worst Critic."

We’ve always been a fan of Emma Watson’s acting abilities (Hermione fans, unite!), but her flare for fabulous fashion and her down-to-earth persona are what make this superstar one of our ultimate faves.

The 22-year-old beauty sat down with Marie Claire UK (February 2013 issue) to talk about her thriving career, and the only thing it takes a back seat too.

On her worst critic:
“I’m a bit OCD about perfectionism. I’m my own worst critic. I think that’s really hard but it also spurs me on.”

On what matters most in life:
“Friends and family come first and work comes second; that’s just how I live my life.”

On her booming acting career:
“Now I feel a lot more settled in who I am and what I think and how I want to do things. And because I feel good about what I’m doing, I don’t need anyone else to say whether they think it’s good or not.”
